Then restart your phone. After that, uninstall last applications (for example, I had installed an application for tracking my device, and seemed that was the problem, it messed up my phone). I did a back up of my phone to my memory card, then turned it off, reinserted the sim card, and it worked. I have now set it to make a back up every day, just to be sure. try doing this: remove your sim card first. Then restart your phone.

It will not boot and it will not turn off again. It remains unresponsive until the battery runs out or is removed. When this happens it turns off, obviously. I charge the phone and the same thing happens. I have tried removing the sim card, sd card, and battery. Plugging it into a charger, into a computer via usb. Nothing. I cannot input a code because I cannot access the dialer. Can anyone help me here? When I turn my N97 on it remains on the white screen with the nokia logo.
